Relief for Hurricane Katrina victims

Tuesday, August 30, 2005 by _02 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I thought I would give this link to The Humane Society in case anyone is interested in helping the poor animals that were left behind during the evacuation and somehow survived. There are thousands of them. They now have no home, no food, and no fresh water. What they do have is alot of fear, hunger and thirst. Every little bit helps. Please help with what you can so the volunteers can go there and rescue these poor things and their families. Thanks for whatever you can do.

I'm actually a Vanguard member of PETA but also donate regularly to PetSmart Charities. You can never donate too much to animal charities imho.

Iben: Do you really think it was necessary to hijack the thread? Tens (if not hundreds) of millions of dollars are being donated to the human charities. Why you feel the need to point out that there are human charities is beyond me.

And just because some of us donate to animal charities doesn't mean we neglect other causes. TSF donated 500 dollars to both the Tsunami victims and just recently the Niger Famine victims. As the company grows and we generate more revenue the amounts we donate will increase as well.

I am so glad to hear that. I am a volunteer for phone line duty at a local no kill facility called Second Chance Pet Adoption of North Carolina. Most of our Adoptathons are held at various PetSmart's in the area. We couldn't do what we are doing without them. Thanks alot!!

Iben, I appreciate your concern over mine and anyone's ability who responds to the actual topic of this thread to help the human victims. I assure you that I am able and willing to support both people and animals. I always have and I always will. So, please understand that I have a right to ask help for the animals. As The Skins Factory and I said earlier, everyone knows about the Red Cross and how to donate to them already. Believe it or not, some people have enough compassion to help both people and animals. I am one of them. I acknowledge that your compassion is limited to helping only people. You have made that clear. If you feel so strongly that the Red Cross needs more advertising than they already have, you should start a thread of your own. I personally don't need you to tell me who I should donate to, but thanks anyway.

What's rude is you hijacking her thread. Start your own thread if you feel so strongly about it. Don't be a troll...

Iben, Here is a link to my second thread at this site. It is asking for, and giving a way to help people, animals and land on a daily basis, not just during emergencies. Maybe now you will feel better.

This is good. I am trying to figure out a way I can give my time (cause the money is low)

I did donate some cash, but not allot, to the humans, but I never thought about the dogs, cats and other animals.

I made a post about it here on WinCusto:

Most people don't. That is why I made this thread. Making people aware of this is a good way you can help without having to spend any money!!! Thanks!
